This is an update to https://hexbear.net/post/281447.

So this past Christmas, I finally got all of the parts together and put together my new Team Red PC.

It's beautiful! All black parts (I don't like unicron vomit). I went with a Ryzen 5600X instead of the 5800X3D (cheaper) and got that RX 6700 XT. I'm rocking 16 GB of DDR4 3200 RAM.

For the OS, I'm running a variant of Fedora called Nobara, made by Glorious Eggroll. It's made for Linux gaming because I am a filthy freeze-gamer . The default DE is KDE Plasma.

I ran Phoronix Test Suite and used the Unigen Valley benchmark. I consistently got over 248 fps at 1080p 60 Hz. Can't go any higher until I swap out my monitor (aka my TV).

Anyways, Cheers y'all! (Pardon the mess. Output from Neofetch. Edited of course.) (EDIT: Edited for grammar and readability.)

I upgraded to that same CPU/GPU combo last year and it's soooo good.

Hell yeah, I actually have a very similar setup myself after doing some upgrades this week. I was running a Ryzen 5 3600 and RX 6650xt but just switched to the 5600x3D and RX6800xt after getting some deals on used parts. It’s so nice getting to crank the settings on all my games 😎

Also I use fedora kde btw

I didn't know they had a AM4 5600x3D. I got the 5800x3D and even the most demanding games barely see 20%. Mostly GPU bound. They hit it out of the park with those ones. As long as you got a quality thermal paste (corsair XTM70 has been doing a fine job for me) and a good cooling solution you should be fine for most everything.

Awesome! This is pretty similar to my current HW build. I'd love to hear about your experience with Nobara once you've been running it for a month or more.
